Facility for producing synthesis gas from a solid feedstock including organic matter, said facility including means for circulating a heat-carrying solid providing the heat necessary for such production, and several stages including gasification means (Z, Z), intermediate separation means (Z, Z) for separating the effluents coming from each stage, and combustion means (Z).

Multi-stage facility and method for gasifying a feedstock including organic matter

The invention relates to an installation and a process for the production of liquid fuels starting from a solid feedstock that contains the organic material in which:

Production of liquid fuels by a concatenation of processes for treatment of a hydrocarbon feedstock

The present invention relates to an installation intended for the pyrolysis of solids, comprising a rotary furnace (1) inside which pyrolysis is achieved, and a means (21) for heating the rotary furnace. The installation according to the invention further comprises a means (2) for preheating the solids, located upstream from said furnace, said means (2) comprises at least two zones (2a, 2b) in which the solids are preheated at different temperatures and a gas extraction device (12) into which the pyrolysis gases are led after passing through at least one of said preheating zones (2a, 2b).

Waste pyrolysis process and installation having a preheating unit

The present invention relates to a process and system for thermal waste treatment. The method according to the invention comprises subjecting the waste to thermolysis in a furnace to produce from the waste thermolysis gases and carbon containing solids; purifying the carbon containing solids into purified carbon containing solids which contain pollutants; using part of the thermolysis gases as fuel which is burned to heat the waste in the furnace; burning in a cyclone furnace at least part of the purified carbon containing solids containing pollutants to produce hot gases and to immobilize the pollutants present in the purified carbon containing solids into solids containing the pollutants; and providing the hot gases to an energy recovery device and using the energy recovery device to recover energy from the hot gases.

Process for waste thermolysis

A furnace for effecting pyrolysis of waste material includes an essentially cylindrical cavity for effecting pyrolysis of the waste material rotating around its lengthwise axis, a combustion chamber located around the cavity and injectors for introducing fuel and comburant or oxidizing agent into said chamber. The injectors for introducing fuel and comburant are oriented tangentially to a wall of the combustion chamber so that flame or flames created by combustion of the fuel developed in the swirling fashion around the cavity containing the waste material. Also, the injectors are arranged to effect staged combustion within the combustion chamber.

Heat treatment furnace for waste and associated process

The present invention relates to a furnace intended for the thermal treatment of solid materials, comprising a rotary element (1) in which said solid materials circulate longitudinally, and a means (9) for heating said materials, which extends longitudinally in the furnace, the solid materials moving forward through about two lengths inside the rotary element (1). According to the invention, the heating means (9) is stationary, intended for channelling the solid materials and for preheating them. More specifically, the heating means (9) is arranged coaxially and inside the rotary element (1) so that, in the axial zone delimited by the heating means, the solid materials exhibit the highest temperatures.
